LAKE CITY, Fla. – A possible tornado near State Road 47 in Columbia County snapped trees, kicked up debris and sent residents scrambling for cover.
A tornado warning was in effect from about 3:15 p.m. to just before 4:25 p.m. for Columbia County.
Multiple residents and a deputy reported seeing a funnel cloud, but Columbia County Emergency Management Director Shayne Morgan told News4Jax they are waiting for the National Weather Service to confirm a tornado touched down.
A video from Matt Rocco that was taken from his home in Wester Woods shows a funnel cloud in the distance toward State Road 47. Rocco told News4Jax that everyone in his house sheltered in place inside and they were all OK.
